Avatar m tn I do not believe this was caused by Viagra. It usually causes a vascular problem. The new onset of floater should be considered an urgent condition. It is may be associated with retinal tears and subsequent retinal detachment. Dr. O.
Avatar f tn Your hepatologist should have the last say - irregardless of what the other doctors think. Yes, Viagra is a problem for patients dealing with liver and kidney disease. Unless my liver team tells me it's ok, I don't do it. Just be careful.
Avatar n tn If I were to squeeze one of my testicles I feel almost nothing, no kidney pain either. I have no sensation of hot and cold in my penis. I use viagra for sex but I can't get off, it's like using morning wood for sex (numb feeling).I can get off by myself but not easily. Any ideas on what might have happened and if the damage is irreversible?
Avatar m tn Does anybody know if Viagra or one of the similar products is harmful to a damaged hep c liver?I went looking for info online and came upon this guy named Lloyd Wright who wrote a book on Hep C who said that studies showed that Viagra increases your viral load.Now he is not a doctor so I wondered if anybody has posed this question to their doctor.
Avatar f tn Tinnitus can be caused by numerous drugs , and numerous outside influences. Other cases can be caused by exposure to loud noises that can & do often cause damage to the nerve center of hearing.

Avatar m tn Anyway, last night I was expecting to have sex so took one 100mg Viagra pill around 9.30PM. Had sex about an hour later and all was good, strong erection throughout the intercourse, no matter I was nervous about it. After I ejaculated the erection normally went away. Girl went home so I went to sleep around midnight without erection. However, I woke up around 6AM with a strong erection and a mild headache, which I know is a side effect of sildenafil.
Avatar n tn Is there a tolerance build up to viagra? For a man like me who didnt physicaly need it, could it damage my penis and make me impotent? Been taking it for 4 months 2 to 3 times a week.
Avatar n tn Generally the only reason to be on Viagra is if you are on the older side in years and have had some of these problems and they can't be fixed. But older folks usually are more concerned with sex with a partner, so I'm just wondering, do you have sex with others, how old are you, and how did you get a prescription for Viagra if you're a young guy who mostly masturbates at this point in your life. The main cause of ED are mental issues.

Avatar n tn Hi All, I was wondering if someone might be able to answer this for me for my own general knowledge. I am a relatively healthy 23 year-old male.

Avatar m tn The typical symptoms of prostatitis are fever, pelvic, testicle, or rectal pain, frequent and painful urination and ejaculation and incomplete emptying of bladder.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar f tn I have had normal liver enzyme test and a normal ultrasound and ct scan, but I still have extreme bloating. This has been going on for months now. I worry because I binge drank on a nightly basis for about an 8 year span, 3-5(sometimes more) glasses of wine and such. Should I be worried that I have liver damage that is just not showing up? I have changed my diet significantly ( no dairy or gluten) but I am still very bloated. I am sick with worry that I have caused permanent damage.
Avatar f tn The only way to truly ease your mind is by being totally honest with him/her.

It is not fun and I would not wish it on anyone.. I contracted hep C from slamming and further continued the damage through pills/alcohol..
